CBU-52B Mirror Finish and Incorrect Markings

The CBU-52B has a mirror finish to it.  This is incorrect, it should be matte like all the other cluster bombs we have in DCS.   The blue stripes on the nose should be yellow since this is not a training bomb.  On the rear of the bomb it should say "CBU-52B/B" and not "CBU-24H/B" as it does currently.  DCS 9_15_2023 9_38_40 PM.png

Here's what it should look like.cbu-52 proper.jpg

 

And here's a CBU-58 since I couldn't find any real world pictures of the CBU-52cbu-58.jpg

Would think this should warrant at least an acknowledgement from the ED team...

The colors have been a problem since at least 2016(first post I could find on the subject) and the finish has been a problem since I bought the F-5 in 2021 and with no acknowledgement from the developers whatsoever, not even to say that it's been reported or they even know about it.  Hopefully this gets fixed when ED eventually reworks the F-5. That being the case, I decided to just fix it myself.  I haven't mastered making the "rough-looking" effect when painting with Gimp so you can tell where I covered stuff up but I think it's good enough to stand in while we wait for the necessary official fix.  Here are the files if you want them.

The install path is in the main directory: DCSWorld\Bazar\World\textures\AeroWeapons

I would recommend unzipping Aeroweapons as sometimes when overwriting files in a zip it can affect the rest of the files and in DCS they usually turn black or have a black tinge to them.
